The cyclocondensation of the N-oxide of the methyl ester of nicotinic acid with 3,3-diamino-1-phenylpropenone and the ethyl ester of 3,3-diaminoacrylic acid in the presence of benzenesulfonyl chloride gives the corresponding 2,7-naphthyridines. The cyclocondensation of 3,3-diamino-1-phenylpropene with the N-oxides of dimethyl 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate and quinolines containing an electrophilic group at in position 3 yields products of the nucleophilic attack of the carbon nucleophilic site of the enediamine at the 2-pyridine ring position, while the amine group binds to the exocyclic electrophilic group.
